As you may be able to tell from my previous posts, I love typography, and discovering new fonts. I've found lots of fonts through other people's blogs and pins on Pinterest and so I thought I would spread the love by sharing some of my favourites. I have been using lots of handwritten fonts recently while working on my Dad's 60th birthday photo book, so I thought I would start by sharing some of my favourites.

Happy downloading!
PS. The notepaper background is also a free download, from Fuzzimo, and the scalloped circle label is from Pugly Pixel

Hi Amy - seems like a super cool blog, fonts, vintage, my weaknesses! Just wanted to let you know that your site is being flagged as having inappropriate content on Pinterest - maybe because of the XXX?

I love these fonts but I am new to this...can't figure out how they work! I downloaded one of them but all I have then is a page with all the different sizes of the same message. Can't figure out how to actually USE them! Help???

It all depends on what system you are using. If windows you have to load them into your Window's font folder in order for it to pick it up. Doing that also varies depending what version of Windows your running. I suggest googling/binging (which ever) Loading Fonts in Windows (which ever version)

My virus scan is not allowing me to download the fonts, saying that one or more contains a virus (I stopped trying to download them, obviously). I'd guess that's the reason for the "innappropriate content" flag?

If you are using a Mac to download the fonts, simply double click the downloaded file. It will bring up FontBook, and the bottom right corner of the window has an install button. Click that and the font will be installed. Just restart word and the font should appear.

HELP!! I downloaded the fonts but cannot figure out how to use them in microsoft office. I have a PC and it just downloads to a zipped folder =( I was hoping to use them for a class project this week but can't figure it out.

I love to hear from you - no-one wants to be in a one-sided conversation - so leave me a comment and let me know you care! And if you want to send me a really lo-o-o-o-o-o-ng message, you can email me on heynicecardigan [at] hotmail [dot] co [dot] uk
